Disable or inhibit "Options" Button from CDE Login Screen.

[Please remove this user]

Dear All,

Can I disable or inhibit the "Options" button from CDE login screen?

When I use VUE, this is possible changing "Vuelogin*options_button*sensitive: False" in the "/etc/vue/config/Xresources" file. But I don?t found this option in the CDE Xresouces file.

Thanks a lot,

Alex

Solution

1. It isn't supported, but setting the following resources in
/etc/dt/config/&LTLANG>/Xresources (where &LTLANG> is usually
C will effectively do this:
Dtlogin*options_menu.sensitive: False
Dtlogin*help_button.sensitive: False
Note that if /etc/dt/config/&LTLANG>/Xresources doesn't exist, first
copy it from /usr/dt/config/&LTLANG>/Xresources.
Once this has been done, reset CDE with "/usr/dt/bin/dtconfig -reset",
and reset the login screen by hitting Shift->Control->Break on the
workstation (or Control-> Alt-> Delete on an XTerminal).
Now the menus can be posted, but nothing can be selected from them.
